Mar 6, 2012 at 14:30 comment added Bart Jansen Thanks for your insight Somnath; the reduction in the paper is very relevant. However, I disagree with your claim that "in the graph constructed, the odd length paths between s and t all have length exactly five"; looking at the example graph in Fig. 5 on page 282 of their paper, (s; w1,1; x1,1; c3; -x1,1; y1,1; z1,1; t) is an odd s-t path of length 7. However, it does seem as if the construction can be used to prove the NP-completeness of my problem; thanks!
